His own personal Everest


It's like he wakes up each day just waiting for the first opportunity he can find to break away from my sight and climb onto the counter in his bathroom.

From tile to toilet he goes, and then it's just a short stretch to get onto the counter.

Today is the first day that he has bothered the actual faucet. It was like I saw the light bulb go on -- that these handles were just like the ones on our garden tub. I know I should have immediately gotten him down.....but I was mesmerized by his darling reflection in the mirror, and I just grabbed the camera instead.

Can you blame me?

OMG - he is precious! He reminds me so much of my nephew, Jake.

At least he's getting started with the dental hygiene early. ;)

LOVE that collage, Mon. I'd frame it & hang it in the bathroom.

That was fun watching! He reminds me of Drew and Mady. We have pictures of Drew's first teeth brushing experience and also of Dan holding Drew so he could sit on the sink with his feet under the faucet. These times make for memories!
